Summary

Cardano has canceled its 2026 Summit in Singapore after the Foundation’s funding proposal failed to win the two-thirds DRep threshold required for treasury approval. The decision ties the event’s funding directly to Cardano’s on-chain governance process, where DReps (delegated representatives in Cardano governance) vote on treasury spending proposals.

Terms & Concepts
  • DRep: Delegated representative in Cardano governance.
  • treasury approval: Authorization to spend community-controlled funds.
  • on-chain governance: Blockchain-based voting on protocol decisions.
